Technical field
[0002] This invention involves applications of a series of dimethylphosphine oxide compounds
in the preparation of an LRRK2 kinase activity inhibitor-related drug, specifically
the application of the compound shown in formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable
salt thereof in the preparation of an LRRK2 kinase activity inhibitor-related drug.
Background technologies
[0003] An increasing number of evidences have shown that mutation and over-expression of
LRRK2 is a root cause of neurodegenerative diseases, mainly featuring selective degeneration
and cell death of dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra. These diseases impact
1% people older than 65, 5-10% of whom are hereditary patients. In the early stage
of the diseases, the most evident symptoms are tremor, slow movement and walking difficulty.
In the later stage of the diseases, patients will have cognitive and behavioral problems.
Patients in the advanced stage will suffer from dementia.
[0004] More and more evidences suggest that mutation of leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2)
is inseparably associated with neurodegenerative disease. LRRK2 is a 2527-amino acid
protein involved in catalytic phosphorylation and GTP-GDP hydrolysis. NM_198578.2
is the NCBI sequence of human LRRK2 mRNA. Some evidences demonstrate that LRRK2 phosphorylates
alpha-synuclein at serine-129, and this form of phosphorylation is an integral part
of Lewy body. In addition, some evidences show that single nucleotide polymorphism
in the functional domain of LRRK2 causes common and sporadic neurodegenerative diseases.
So far, researchers have identified more than 20 LRRK2 mutations in families with
delayed neurodegenerative diseases. For instance, G2019S mutation is co-segregated
with autosomal dominant. Due to the mutation, there are approximately 6% familial
cases and 3% sporadic cases in Europe. G2019S mutation occurs in the highly conserved
domain of kinase, so it might affect kinase activity. In addition, amino acid substitutions
in another residue R1441 are also related to neurodegenerative diseases, and suggested
to increase the LRRK2 kinase activity. The over-expression of R1441G in the mutant
LRRK2 of the transgenic mouse model is correlated to release of less dopamine. It
is demonstrated that LRRK2 inhibitor actively regulates release of dopamine, with
potential efficacy for treating diseases characterized by declined dopamine level.
According to relevant data, LRRK2 kinase activity inhibitor can be also used for treating
related neurodegenerative diseases.
[0005] Therefore, developing potent inhibitors of LRRK2 and its mutants is one important
way for treating neurodegenerative diseases. This invention aims to invent a compound
for highly inhibiting LRRK2, in order to further invent potent drugs for treating
neurodegenerative diseases.

Definitions and descriptions
Definitions and interpretations
[0024] Unless otherwise specified, terms and phrases of this paper shall have following
meanings. A specific term or phrase, if not specially defined, shall not be deemed
uncertain or indefinite, but shall be understood according to their general meanings.
The commodities mentioned hereunder shall mean corresponding commodities or their
active ingredients. "Pharmaceutically acceptable" is a term specific to compounds,
materials, compositions and/or dose forms within the range of reliable medical judgment,
which are suitable for tissue exposure and application in the mankind and animals
without over high toxicity, irritation, hypersensitivity or other problems or complications,
commensurate with the appropriate reward to risk ratio.
[0025] "Pharmaceutically acceptable salt" means salt of an invented compound, prepared by
the compound with specific substitute groups discovered in this invention and relatively
nontoxic acid or alkali. When a compound of this invention contains relatively acid
functional groups, the salt thereof can be prepared by making an enough amount of
alkali in contact with the neutral form of the invented compound in pure solution
or suitable inert solvent. Alkali-formed salt includes sodium salt, potassium, calcium,
ammonium, organic amine or magnesium salt or similar salt. When the invented compound
has relatively alkaline functional groups, salt can be prepared by making an adequate
amount of acid in contact with the neutral form of the compound in pure solution or
suitable inert solvent. Pharmaceutically acceptable acid-formed salt includes inorganic
acid salt (inorganic acid hereby mentioned includes hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic
acid, nitric acid, carbonic acid, bicarbonate, phosphoric acid, monohydrogen phosphate,
dihydrogen phosphate, sulfuric acid, bisulfate, hydroiodic acid and phosphorous acid),
organic acid salt (organic acid hereby mentioned includes acetic acid, propanoic acid,
isobutyric acid, maleic acid, propanedioic acid, benzoic acid, succinic acid, suberic
acid, fumaric acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, phthalic acid, benzenesulfonic acid,
P-toluenesulfonic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, methanesulfonic acid and similar
acid), amino acid (e.g. arginine) and organic acid (e.g. glucuronic acid) salt. Certain
specific compounds in this invention contain some alkali and acid functional groups,
which can be converted into any alkali or acid-forming salt.
[0026] The pharmaceutically acceptable salt in this invention can be synthesized with parented
compound containing acidic groups or nucleobases by routine chemical methods. Generally,
such salt is prepared as follows: the compound existing in the form of free acid or
alkaline reacts with chemically appropriate alkaline or acid in water or organic solvent
or mixture of water and organic solvent.
[0027] One or more atoms constituting the invented compound may contain atomic isotopes
at a non-natural ratio. For example, the compound can be labeled with radioactive
isotopes such as
3H,
125I or C-14 (
14C). Furthermore, heavy hydrogen may substitute for hydrogen to prepare deuterium-substituted
drugs. The bonds composed by deuterium and carbon are firmer than those made up of
carbon. Deuterium-substituted drugs outperform non-deuterated drugs due to its advantages
for reducing poisonous side effects, increasing drug stability, enhancing therapeutic
efficacy and prolonging biological half-life of drugs. All conversions from isotopes
of the invented compound are within the scope of this invention no matter they are
radioactive or not.
[0028] "Optional" or "optionally" means the events or circumstances described thereafter
are probable but will unnecessarily occur, and includes the situations of such events
or circumstances that will or will not occur.
[0029] "Substituted" means that any one or more hydrogen atoms are replaced by substituent
groups on certain atom. The substituent groups may include heavy hydrogen and hydrogen
variants as long as the valence of the atoms is normal and the compound is stable
after the substitution. "Optionally substituted" means the mentioned may be substituted
or not be substituted. Unless otherwise specified, type and quantity of the substituent
groups may be optional if only the substitution is chemically possible.
[0030] When any variable (e.g. R) occurs more than once in the composition or structure
of the compound, its definition under each situation shall be independent. Therefore,
if one radical group is substituted by 0 to 2 R radicals, the radical group may be
optionally substituted by two R radicals at most, and under each situation, there
is an independent option for R. in addition, only if the combination of the substituent
group and/or its variant produces a stable compound will it be allowable.
[0031] When a variable is selected from a single bond, the two radical groups connected
by this variable will be directly connected. For instance, if L in A-L-Z is a single
bond, the structure, in essence, is A-Z.
[0032] If it is uncertain through which atom that the exemplified substituent group is connected
to the substituted radical group, the substituent group may be bonded to the substituted
one through any of its atoms. For instance, pyridine group, as the substituent group,
may be connected to the substituted radical group via any carbon atom on the pyridine
ring.

Experimental purpose: to study pharmacokinetics of the compounds in vivo in C57BL/6
mice - drug concentration ratio between brain tissues and plasma
Experimental materials: C57BL/6 mice (male, 8 weeks old, weight: 25 g - 30 g)
Experimental operations:
[0175] Assay pharmacokinetic features of glires after they are orally administered the compounds
according to standard schemes. In the experiment, the candidate compounds are prepared
into 1 mg/mL mixed suspension, and mice are orally administered once. The menstruum
for oral administration is 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)/10% polysorbate/20% PEG-400
acqueous solution. This project uses male C57BL/6 mice, which are orally administered
drugs at a dose of 5 mg/kg. Collect the whole brain 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 hours after the
administration. Homogenize tissue samples with 15 mM [fetal bovine serum (pH = 7.4)
buffer and methanol (volume ratio: 2:1)] at a ratio of 1:5 (w:v). Equally divide the
homogenate into 2 samples: one for assay and the other for standby use. Besides, collect
plasma 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 hours after administration. Centrifugate with 3,000g relative
centrifugal force within half an hour after collection at about 4 °C for 15 minutes
to separate supernatant and obtain plasma samples. Store the plasma samples in polypropylene
tubes; rapidly freeze them on dry ice and keep them at -80 °C till LC/MS/MS assay.

them to extract supernatant samples via centrifugation. Quantitatively analyze plasma
concentration by LC-MS/MS assay and calculate pharmacokinetic parameters such as maximal
concentration (C
max), half-life (T
1/2), maximal time (T
max), drug concentration in different tissues after administration (AUC
0-last), and drug concentration ratio between brain tissues and plasma (B/P). For the Embodiments

2. Experimental Operations
2.1 Administration and Tissue Collection
[0180] The animals of each group are orally administered menstruum or the compound to be
assayed in chronological order as shown in Table 4. One mouse is administered every
2 minutes. 1 hour after administration, all animals are successively euthanized with
carbon dioxide in chronological order. Collect 600 µl whole blood by heart puncture
and place it in an EDTA-K2 containing anticoagulation tube. Take 100 µl whole blood
for centrifugation for 10 minutes at 4 °C and 8,000 rpm to separate plasma and freeze
it in liquid nitrogen. Subsequently, transfer the plasma to dry ice for further research.
Separate peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from the remained blood through
density gradient centrifugation using cell separation solution. Meanwhile, collect
brain, lung and kidney tissues from the animals. Quickly freeze and place them in
dry ice. Then, transfer them for preservation at -80 °C.
2.2 Separation of PBMC
[0181] Add fetal bovine serum (1 mL, twice the volume) to the remained blood sample of each
group (500 µl) for dilution, and gently mix them. Add 3 mL separation solution to
a 50 mL centrifugal tube, and gently add the diluted blood sample to the supernatant
of the centrifugal liquid. Centrifugate with 800g relative centrifugal force for 20
minutes at room temperature. Both the ascending and descending speed is 0. At the
end of centrifugation, there will be three layers: the upper layer with plasma, the
middle layer with separation solution and the lower layer with red blood cells. Between
the plasma and separation solution is a mist layer. Gently suck the mist layer out
and place it into another 15 mL centrifugal tube. Add fetal bovine serum to dilute
till 8 mL and centrifugate with 800g relative centrifugal force at 4 °C for 5 minutes.
Discard the supernatant and ensure that all supernatant is sucked out. Add 1 mL ACK
cell lysis buffer to each tube, and keep them at room temperature for 10 minutes.
10 minutes later, add fetal bovine serum to each tube till the volume reaches 10 mL
and mix them evenly. Centrifugate with 800g relative centrifugal force at 4 °C for
5 minutes. Discard the supernatant. Add 1 mL fetal bovine serum for resuspension,
and mix them evenly. Suck 50 µl cell solution out and add 450 µl fetal bovine serum
to the solution for cell counting. After counting cells of all samples, centrifugate
with 800g relative centrifugal force at 4 °C for 5 minutes. Discard the supernatant
and insert the cells into dry ice for quick freezing. Subsequently, store the cells
in a refrigerator at -80 °C.
2.3 Pharmacological assay
[0182]
- (1) After protein determination of brain tissue samples by BCA, apply 4% to 15% precast
gel in an equal amount of protein samples.
- (2) Add SDS Lysis Buffer according to PBMC count, and apply 13 µl to 4-15% precast
glue in all samples.
- (3) Perform protein electrophoresis at 200 V for 30 minutes. Then, use Midi PVDF Transfer
Packs for membrane transfer for 7 minutes. Next, block them with TBS Blocker at room
temperature for 1 hour.
- (4) Prepare 5% milk with skimmed milk powder. Then, formulate antibodies P-LRRK2 (add
20 µl antibody to 5 mL 5% milk at 1:250), total-LRRK2 (add 10 µl antibody to 5 ml
5% skimmed milk at 1:500), p-Rab10 (add 10 µl antibody to 5 mL 5% skimmed milk at
1:500) and p-actin (add 5 µl antibody to 5 mL 5% milk at 1:1000), and incubate the
antibodies overnight.
- (5) Recycle the primary antibodies and rinse membranes with TBS for three times, 10
minutes each time.
- (6) Block secondary anti-rabbit antibodies (add 5 µl antibody to 10 mL 5% milk at
1:2000) at room temperature for one hour, and wash the membranes for 3 times with
TBS. Then, render the bands colors.

[0183] Conclusions: The compounds in this invention have potential effects for inhibiting
LRRK2 phosphorylation in brain tissues of mice. In addition, its inhibitory effects
tend to be dose dependent at 3 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg. When dosed at 3 mg/kg,
the compound in this invention inhibits LRRK2 phosphorylation to the same degree as
GNE-7915 (reference compound) inhibits LRRK2 phosphorylation at a dose of 10 mg/kg.
The compound in this invention significantly inhibits phosphorylation of LRRK2and
its downstream protein Rab10. When dosed at 3 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg, it tends
to be dose-dependent in inhibiting LRRK2 phosphorylation. Furthermore, the compound
in this invention, when dosed at 10 mg/kg, outperforms GNE-7915 (reference compound)
in inhibiting LRRK2 and Rab10 phosphorylation.
